The circular seat c0noi'he' ch stisuted the junction of the central upmven *1 right cone and the outwardly inclined Wells 11 serve a base for resting the dish nprifzl'i position upon fia't surfaces.

The dish in small. sizes is admirably adapted for use in serving ice cream and the like and. in larger sizes, may be employed for a variety of purposes. As a knock-down oldie or dish for outing purposes, the device apgroaches the ideal.

As is ob icus, the dishes may be packed in hundles packages in lmock-down, or

In either case, large numbers he packed in small space, rendering shipment charges and storage space eco- 55 i a sui'bei y located aperture therein and adapted. no be folded on two radial lines to form an intervening gusset, said tongue being adapted to be pro ected through said aperture whensaid gusset is folded against the body of the disk.

The herein-described blank for a dish, comprising a circular'disk which is shaped at one side to form a tongue, said disk having a suitably located aperture therein and being adapted to be folded on two radial lines to form an intervening gusset, one of said lines bisecting said tongue, said tongue being adapted for projecting through said aperture when said gusset is folded against the body of the disk.

comprising a circular disk which is shaped at one side to form a tongue, said disk having a suitably located aperture therein and being adapted to be f0 dedon two radial lines to form. an intervening gusset, one of said lines biseeting said tongue, said tongue being adapted for projecting through said aperture when said sset is folded against the body of the d' said disk having a circular scoredine concentric therewith, adapting the central portion thereof to be forced into upright conical form after the aforesaid folding of the gusset. 5. The herein described blank for a dish, comprising a substantially circular disk having radial score-lines converging at its center and definingthe positions of folds which serve to produce a gusset adapted for folding against the body of the disk,'said disk being provided with a suitably located aperture, and a tongue formed integral with said disk adjacent to one of said score lines and adapted, when said gusset is folded as aforesaid, to be projected through said aperture for maintaining the folded form.

6. The herein-described blank for a dish, comprising a substantially circular disk having radial score-lines converging at its center and defining'the positions of folds which serve to produce a gusset adapted for folding against the body of the'disk, and means for maintaining said folded form of said dish, said disk having a circular some lino corrcenti'ic therewith adaj'iting the central portion thereof to be forced upward into lip-- right conical form.

7. The herein-described blank for a dish, comprising a substantially circular disk which is notched at one side to form a projecting tongue, said disk having a suitably located aperture therein and being adapted to be folded on two radial lines to form an intervening gusset, said tongue being adapted to be projected through said aperture when said gusset is folded against the body of the disk.

8. The herein described blank for a dish, comprising a substantially circular disk having two oppositely disposed notches formed in its edge at one side thereof to form an intervening tongue, said disk having a suitably located aperture therein and being adapted to be folded on two radial lines to form an intervening gusset, said tongue being adapted to be projected through said aperture when said gumet is'folded against the body of the disk.

9. The herein-described blank for a dish,

ture when said gusset is folded against the body of the disk.

10. A pa or dish composed of a substantially circu ar blank having a tongue formed in. the edge thereof and having an aperture formed adjacent to. its edge at a s aced distance from said tongue, a gusset ormed b folding said blank on two radial lines whic converge at the center thereof, one of said lines being adjacent to said tongue and the other of said lines being intermediate said tongue and said aperture, said tongue being received in said aperture, and an upright conical bottom formed by creasing the blank in a circular line concentric with the blank and then forcing the central portion. of the blank upward.

In testimony whereof, I affix my signature in presence of two subscribing witnesses.
